Lolz.
I never new I am engaging a Dunderheaɗ.

Radio beerfraud has done an irredeemable damage to your thinking faculty dear.
When will the referendunce hold?

ConqueredWest:
You are just wasting your time and mb

Referendum will hold in territories of all invited SS tribes

Each will be given an opportunity to choose between Nigeria or Biafra

Talk from now to tomorrow, it is already a concluded matter


Referendum stands

pazienza:
More like the only way you want Biafra achieved is via war, where you believe you would have upper hand as you continue to count on the super nations of the world to support your war efforts.
You don't want peaceful dissolution, which is not surprising, considering that Gowon your frontrunner did the same..

What you don't know is that if there be another civil war in Nigeria, Nigeria would have to sign away its future in slavish pacts and trade agreements to those super nations to attract their support to supply them with unlimited weapons to suppress Biafrans again.

And when the dust settles, Nigeria will become worst than it is today, as your super power helpers are not father Christmas and would demand for their reward.

And so I ask, is it worth it? Why can't the black man learn to peacefully divide Africa into real nations without getting the Caucasians to enslave us all in needless war support pacts?
Are we saying that the colonial abominations created by the Caucasians in 1886 with aim to exploit indigenous people are the best we can do as a people.

Nigeria is not a super power like China, she doesn't manufacture weapons and so can't keep a formidable major ethnic group like Ndiigbo down in an all out war without soliciting for help from Super powers. She can't afford to keep Igbos down like China is doing to Tibet without getting itself exploited in the process

Don't blame them. Majority groups worldwide are always interested or desperate over minority groups in order to use them for greater influence, significance and to do their bidding.

This is one fact i wish the OP fratermathy should also know.
South-South minority groups are even lucky because they have a greater autonomy unlike those of us minorities from the North-Central and North-east whom are always overshadowed by Hausa-fulanis.
And to worsen our plight, Hausa-fulanis have succeeded in using religion (islam) to divide our people and gain the allegiance of our muslim groups. It's just sad.

Can't u see how the Russians were stripped of being world power and lost their world influence as soon as the Soviet union collapsed and the minority groups liberated? This is one thing most majority groups dread.

fratermathy:
Oniovo me. Vwor ruru! Do!

These ekpari'hwo just cannot accept the reality that we are not interested. Who gave them the right to speak for us? We all know the facts of the matter.

I raised simple issues with their Biafran agitation and see what their responses were. None of them even pretended to shove aside their Igbocentricism. They are so igbocentric yet they want non-Igboid groups in their Biafra. The way they rush to defend their cause without objectively addressing facts shows us how they would do in their Biafra. No sane Urhobo man ever thinks of Biafra as a choice.

We discussed this thread in Urhobo People's Forum group on Facebook and in South South People's Forum group. You need to see how the reality didn't even surpise all of us. Even the few that were indifferent are now strongly anti-Biafra!

They keep creating enemies. They said I shiold substantiate my statement that only 1% of minority groups are interested in Biafra yet fail to prove otherwise even when there are statements from the recognised socio-cultural mouthpieces of these groups; even when many of us have come to this thread to deny Biafra! Some of them are even impersonating Urhobos now. See the video of this IPOB idi*t, whose accent is clearly Igbo, claiming to be Urhobo here:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8Wr4zq73dU

After impersonating us, they upload videos on the Internet, the likes of what one of them uploaded on this thread to say Rivers and Akwa Ibom women support them even when it is clear that these minorities have rejected their Biafra. Erue ri'hwo!

I asked them why they want to create another Nigeria in the name of freedom and they can't answer. You want a country. Why don't you take your people alone? Must you drag others with you? All the minorities have their own destinies and fights and Biafra is not one of them.

They ask me whether i have a right to speak for Urhobo and the minorities without asking themselves who gave them to rights to speak for Igbo and the minorities!

They said they need referendum. Oghene biko o! Did we ask for one? Has any group asked for one? Even if any has asked, was it so that they would be Biafrans?

The reality is glaring and they have refused to accept it. Just like in the issues I raised, they argued with emotions and tribal sentiments rather than logic and reason. They acted like the semi-literate IPOB traders that they are!

Okoh, biko yanjia vwo. Awanre mla ye vughe nurhe. Ayen rhi ihwo gbogbo. Ayen vwon ohor o! Biko rue mu ofa. Doh! Kobiruo!

Ekuogbe r'Urhobo v'Isoko Wadoooooo!
Omi Iwerre Dede!
Ijaw adoooo!
Hailings to my Efik, Ibibio, Oron, Eket, Anaang, Epie-Atissa, and Edo people!
Our destiny is in our hands, not in the hands of any other group or tribe!

Count us out of your plans – Urhobo nation tells Biafra proponents

The Urhobo Progressive Union, UPU, has denounced its inclusion in the proposed map of Biafra by the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, warning that Urhobo and its territories should be counted out of any IPOB plan.

Faulting its purported membership of Biafra in a statement issued yesterday, the UPU National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Mumakai-Unagha said, “IPOB have their rights of agitation for freedom of self determination as enshrined in the united nation declaration stressing that other ethnic groups should not be dragged along to avoid the mistake that led to the civil war.

“The magnanimity of Urhobos in allowing Igbos celebrate the Igbo Cultural Day should not be taken for granted as we urge IPOB to delist Urhobo from its proposed map,” they stated.

kingzizzy:
Whenever someone from the minorities of Nigeria says they are not interested in a referendum, it is a clear case of an impostor.

The minorities of Nigeria rarely have a say in what happens in Nigeria or how their future is decided.

So when someone is intent on making themselves more minor by denying themselves their right to a democratic referendum, then the person cannot be from the minorities. The minorities have had their oil wealth stolen for years, the suffer the effects of Oil exploration and they have been impoverished. It is not in that situation anyone rejoices about one Nigeria.

I remember what Asari Dokubo said about Itsekiris in his his phone call to Radio Biafra a few weeks where he declared himself a Biafran. He disparaged them saying that only a referendum will allow them be part of Biafra. However, facts do not lie. Urohbos have become regular callers on Radio Biafra, the head of IPOB in Delta state is actually an Urohbo man. A few weeks ago, Radio Biafra was hosted in Urohbo language. I even.learnt some Urohbo that dat and was surprised that the word for 'blood' means the same thing in Urohbo and Igbo languages. Many Urohbos called in and pledged allegiance to Biafra.

So whoever started this thread is ignorant, naieve and definitely not from one of the minorities.

Uyo —The ethnic nationalities of the South- South geo-political zone, yesterday, denounced demands for Biafra by Igbo in the South-East zone and called for an immediate cessation of pro-Biafra protests on their soil.

This came as the South East Governors Forum, SEGF, summoned an emergency meeting of Igbo leaders to discuss the persisting protests by members of the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, which have paralysed economic activities in the old Eastern region.


In a 10-point communique issued at Uyo at the end of a meeting held under the auspices of the Conference of Ethnic Nationalities of the South-South at Uyo, Akwa Ibom state, chaired by HRM, Obong (Dr) EU Ekidem, Ntisong Ibibio III, the Ntisong of Ibibio land, they dissociated the South-South zone from the “so-called Biafra.”

Representatives of Ibibio, Efik, Anang, Ijaw, Itsekiri, Urhobo, Ikwerre, Oro, Isoko and several other nationalities attended the summit.

Among them were the interim chair of the group, HRM Ekidem, Convener of the meeting and Secretary of the Itsekiri Leaders of Thought, ILoT, Delta state, Barrister Edward Ekpoko, Albert Akpomudje, SAN (Urhobo) and president general of Ogbakor- Ikwerre in Rivers state, Prof A.M Onyeozu.

Pastor Nelson CocoBassey (Efik ethnic nationality), Ulap Bidiak Uloh (Oro ethnic nationality), Amechi Ogbonnia (Itsekiri), Obong Ukpong Umoh and Obong Aniedi Ndem were at the conference and signed the communique.

The South South nationalities said, “We will not allow any inch of the land of the ethnic nationalities mentioned above and other lands of the South-South to be part of the ill-thought-out enterprise.

“We call for a halt to demonstrations for Biafra on our land henceforth as it touches on the collective sensibilities of our people and could provoke ethnic crisis.

“We are not only surprised but shocked that Igbos who returned to Nigeria after the fall of Biafra in January 15, 1970 with tales of woes and horrors can talk about Biafra.”

They added: “It is in the interest of Igbos that Nigeria is protected as they have more investments outside their homeland.”

The Conference called on governors, political leaders and traditional rulers of the South-East geopolitical zone to “speak out now as their silence is becoming eloquent.”

Furthermore, the South-South ethnic nationalities urged “well-meaning Igbos to call their children/wards to order to prevent an avoidable crisis.”

“We call on the law enforcement agencies to be more vigilant. “We believe in one Nigeria and will do all within our power to protect the unity of Nigeria,” they stated.

ZelibeKristein:
You Igbos are something else, the OP is Urhobo but you are insulting Yoruba everywhere. When they retaliate, you cry to the mods that everyone hates you. Must everyone agree with your foolishness? There are several eboes that dont even support biafra, stop insulting those that dont care about your madness.

BERNIMOORE:
what is the validity period? Tell us affirmatively supporting it with evidence now

Caseless:
I know dino did not graduate, but used an ibo HoD to hatch his evil plan and was so desperate to get to some political height and gain popularity because it will be difficult for a.b.u to disown him publicly just to save their image. I pity that VC that came to testify.
Again, the stock-in-trade in the east is HODs helping students to graduate even when they're not supposed to. All you need to do is to help the HoD you're dealing with by giving them something to support the burial of his father-inlaw(there must be an upcoming burial in their family). That is what that dubious HoD exported to ABU and got Dino off the hook.

willyo:
Atleast E go school... Maybe na pass E nor pass.

SR... Which school we fit confirm the year Bubu graduate?

DesChyko:
Who says any course can't be waived?
Nigerian education system has been, was and is still flawed. Trying to make it look saintly just to hook Dino is a very foolish move.
Take ABU for example; We know the quality of education that exists normally in the North yet a good number of Northerners have degrees from that University. Is that magic or what?
Sahara Reporters screwed up again like they always do. All these grasping at straws is doing them no favours. They should investigate properly before rushing to the media. Someone has to hold them to account so they can inculcate proper ethics into their journalism

pbethel:
OK. So ds how de want to rope innocent people into ds Dino saga

Exam officer and VC
(it is well o. Make e no turn something else tomorrow)

Ishilove:
Cheapskate

ionsman:
Oh now I grab...The trolling is because of the guy who had a rant on twitter because of a girl turning his relationship proposal down after spending 5k on a date...

ConqueredWest:
Afonja go defend your ile ife people and leave Urhobos alone

modik:
The issue here is use of English and semantics.

Pardon me for mismatched elitism.

The contention is distortion/misplacement of facts. You mentioned the contraption as Zik's "brainchild " which is wrong. He supported the idea, but never originated it.

See the meaning of brainchild as attached.

modik:
The greatest lie is that told against the dead(Zik)

For the sake of historic fact, let me bring you to speed by telling you what you already know :

1. When was Zik born? (hint, flip your N500 note for answer)

2. When was the Northern and Southern Protectorates merged by Lord Lugard ("The contraption"... )

3.How old was Zik of Africa then?


Your objective response to the above questions go further to corroborate the unbalanced and sentimental viewpoint as already established on here about the OP and his fellow comrades.

Biafrans remain objective irrespective of whose ox is gored.

sgtponzihater:
I won't come here and start telling lies. The organisation does radiological investigations. It's more of a man and a wife that runs the place and it has gained so much name in the environment that clients troop in every second. The in house staying is so that when clients come in the midnight they can be attended to. As it's a 24hr service being offered.

soliddust2020:
WTF is wrong with you IPOB, we urhobos are not part of biafra and never will. referendum won't stand in urhobo because we never asked for it. Why can't you guys leave us in peace.

modik:
Maybe someone is not following the trend.

For your information, many housas and Yorubas share in the ideology of Biafra. I overheard an housaman publicly profess his unshakable loyalty to Biafra if they leave, that he would seek its citizenship.

You can only speak for yourself but when the chips are down, the turn of events may be the greatest surprise of the century. Tell me who is not tired of the contraption we have as a country!

ziga:
English is not our native language.

There are lots of Americans who have spoken English all their life, but who can't construct proper sentences.

And education has gone to sh|t because our leaders don't have any priorities.

olasquare22:
Is it possible not to include consideration in an offer b4 acceptance? I want to believe this is just an anecdota but not real? OFFER-CONSIDERATION-ACCEPTANCE. These three are d basic elements of any valid contract. Pls clear us on this.

ConqueredWest:
Yorubas and Hausa Fulani people were not invited. Therefore, no referendum will hold in their place

ConqueredWest:
Don't speak for other Urhobos, they will speak for themselves through a referendum

Bigdigpussylova:
why are u guys fighting over nothing? I would prefer to see a constructive and robust discussion on the need to restructure the country. i am an indigenous Biafran and a citizen of Nigeria. i want to see this country restructured as a confederation. every section of the country should develop itself and contribute to the national purse. the confederation should legislate on defence, foreign policies, immigration, aviation and space technology, marine and oceanology and few other sectors. the federating state could take charge of every other sectors like; education, agriculture, mining and commerce etc .

my humble opinion though. May God bless Ndi Biafra. God bless federal Republic of Nigeria.
